This is a display model. Bought on ebay as a partial build (hull).
Finish the hull, eg stern lights, cannons, etc.
Fitted the rigging, blocks and ropes.
The standing rigging have over 1000 clove hitches.
The rigging took weeks, and i now understand the saying "getting to know the ropes"
I did not make a build blog as it would be very boring due to the build pace.

This also definitely also gives new meaning to the words." Get Knotted".

Ahh!!! The dexterity of those little pinkies, definitely no signs of the dreaded arthritis or rheumatism there. You have created a work of art, fantastic job congratulations. Regards.

Beautiful job Hillro, shows a man with much patience (and small fingers)😁. Well worth the time taken, not a model to be rushed.
